Section 1 1.1 PURPOSE The purpose of the Indigo Ridge Development Guidelines (hereafter referred to as “Guidelines”) is to provide a cohesive and holistic approach to development that creates a sustainable, walkable, and unique mixed-use environment within the Indigo Ridge Planning Development (PD). The Guidelines are designed to allow for architectural expression and variance which is compatible with the overall development. Uniform, identical buildings with non-descript outdoor spaces are discouraged. 1.2 WALKABLE, SUSTAINABLE AND RESILIENT ENVIRONMENT The Indigo Ridge Development is intended to be a walkable, sustainable and resilient community which promotes Mixed-Use Development patterns to minimize vehicular access, reduce air pollution, and to foster health and wellness. a. Whenever possible and practicable, these Guidelines promote a walking environment; one where pedestrian (and bicycle) access is favored over other modes. To accomplish this, these Guidelines promote a “park once” principle – residents, tenants, shoppers, and visitors feel comfortable to walk from destination to destination within the Indigo Ridge Development, without the need for a car in most cases. b. All destinations within the Development will be designed to be accessible within a Five (5) to Ten (10) minute walking radius (typically a One-Quarter to One-Half Mile radius). c. Pedestrian pathways are designed to be comfortable, shaded, illuminated at night, and to promote walking as the logical and most obvious way to circulate throughout the Indigo Ridge Development. d. Buildings will be accessible by roadways as well, but the overall intent is to create an environment conducive to walking. 1.3 MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT These Guidelines promote the integration of various uses in both a Vertical and Horizontal manner. Single-use buildings are not prohibited, but should integrate into the overall development and mixture of uses. Vertically-mixed buildings may include any of the following combinations: a. Office buildings may incorporate retail, dining and/or entertainment uses – usually at the street-level – along with the primary Office use. Buildings which are principally office-only uses shall be limited to Districts which are specifically designed to accommodate single-tenant and multi-tenant Office buildings and associated parking structures. Office buildings may include support uses including cafeterias and limited retail primarily intended to be used by tenants and employees, but may also be open to anyone if desired. Office-related “amenity centers” are permitted and encouraged. b. Residential uses are allowed only in Districts that are within a short walking distance to an existing or future Rail Transit Station. Residential buildings are encouraged to incorporate retail, dining and/or entertainment uses at the street level. c. Retail uses are allowed in all Districts and may be either Single-Use retail tenants, part of a Mixed-Use building, or as support use in an Office building. d. A Hotel is allowed as part of Mixed-Use Development and Transit-Oriented Development area. e. Mixed-Use Buildings may integrate Office, Residential, and Hotel uses with street-level Retail, Dining and/or Entertainment uses.
